I agree, the way to beat the 49ers is to run at them all game. With that said, it's not an easy thing to do especially with them playing at home. It just doesn't happen. If the Giants want to win this game they're going to have to stop our run game first because the 49ers like to milk the clock which will keep Manning on the sidelines. The 49ers for some reason didn't run as much against the Vikings and it cost them.

They didnt run as much because they were playing from behind all game!

When teams get the lead, they sit back and run the ball more, when they are behind they pass more.

They don't trail in games, but what's your point? They're still going to run the ball...

That is my point. They run the ball because they dont trail in games.

The one time they were playing all game from behind, they did not run the ball.

Somehow you are saying this exact thing, but dont believe it. Which is odd. Teams run the ball when they feel comfortable, either their defense is playing great and the game is very close, or they are comfortably in the lead. When they are behind, they press and throw the ball more. Can see this with nearly every team every week. Especially with run first teams.
